Good Shepherd Lutheran Church

About this church

Good Shepherd Lutheran Church is an ELCA congregation on Maine Street in Brunswick. Founded in 1962 to serve military families connected with the former Brunswick Naval Air Station and Topsham Radar Station, it developed a particular concern for people navigating deployment, relocation, and other transitions. The church now extends that supportive welcome to college students, retirees, and neighbors seeking a compassionate Christian community.

Sunday worship begins at 9:00 a.m. The congregation invites people into worship, fellowship, community outreach, and service that reaches locally and beyond. Its mission states that all people are welcomed, affirmed, and celebrated as children of God. Recurring activities include a monthly community breakfast open to neighbors and an every-other-Thursday women’s Bible study that begins with a potluck lunch before Scripture study; dates should be confirmed through the events page. Facebook offers a way to get a feel for congregational life before visiting. The formal ELCA affiliation and mission-congregation history make the listing more specific than a generic Lutheran label.
